Uso pa ba ang harana? I know there is no need for us to ask this question. We are now living in a modern world and most people would say that harana is out of date or 'baduy'. Harana was our traditional form of courtship wherein man serenade woman underneath her window at night. This long-forgotten tradition of courtship is no longer exist even in rural areas and small town of our country.

Today, many of Filipina women won't deny that they find it romantic when a guy serenade them. They find it sweet and romantic than love quotes in text messages and emails of today's generation. If women like it, why harana died and forgotten by many modern Filipinos?

Even before the rise of many technologies, harana started to fade and die. After the Spanish Era in the Philippines, courtship is mostly done without serenading. Although a man has to visit the girl's family and formally introduce himself to the parents of the girl, he can do this without serenading the woman. After a years when technology evolved and when technology made it easier to court and express feelings to a woman, it totally killed this tradition. Now, that the old harana tradition is dead and forgotten, how can we serenade Filipina during this modern times?

Yes Harana is dead and forgotten, but the passion of Filipino in expressing his love is unalterable. The spirit of harana can be done today in a modern form. Sometimes harana is done by live band or radio playing requested songs that is dedicated for a certain woman, sometimes it is done by serenading a woman through videoke machine in front of some friends, and sometimes by serenading a woman through a modern technology (it might be cellphone or internet). It is changed but it didn't lose its purpose to make the woman feels that she's the most beautiful girl in this world. It is really different from old fashioned harana but it never fails to impress the woman. That's how to serenade a Filipina woman... the harana of modern times.

Everyone love beaches. How much more beaches like paradise. Beaches like the most best beaches in the Philippines where the breeze of the air is a music of nature that whispers melody to your soul, the white sands that brings you to the state of delight, and the waters that bring new meaning of paradise.

Philippines is not a rich country even it is rich with natural resources. Some of the roads on its highway are filled with pot holes, streets are congested, public vehicles such as jeepney are everywhere, street children roaming around the streets, beggars exploring garbage bins, and poor families struggling to survive under the bridge. The whole thing gives the impression that this country is not rich and people are poor. But,why Filipinos are happy people?

I am a Filipino and I know why we are happy. The following are some of the reasons why we Filipinos are happy people:

1. We are happy because of our faith.

We look to the brighter side of life even though there are so many problems around us. We believe in God, We believe that He will always guide and find the way for us. That's the characteristic of our faith. Most of the Filipino people are dependent to God. That trait makes us a positive thinkers.

2. Cheerfulness is part of our culture.

We are innately happy people. A typhoon victims wave and smile while a newscaster is reporting in front of a camera. So many children don't even have toys, but they're happy making games with a cans, chalk, rocks, slippers, and anything else they find. In spite of having difficulties we tend to smile and be happy. That's the nature of Filipino people.

3. We are satisfied of what we have.

Although part of human nature to want more, we Filipinos, are carefree people. Despite of having a small and not enough income, most Filipinos are happy of having a job, having a meals on the table, and having a family around them. This kind of characteristic is often times criticized by many Filipinos abroad to be a characteristic of a lazy Pinoy, being contented of having a few and not wanting to have more. This characteristic is seldom to be seen from Filipinos abroad. Most OFW are the kind of Filipinos who have dreams and ambitions in life.

4. We love celebrations.

We love to celebrate little success in life, we love to celebrate family, we love to celebrate love, We love to celebrate birthday, wedding anniversary, baptism and even death anniversary. We celebrate any special moment in life by just throwing off small parties or by eating out in fast food centers no matter how small it is.

5. Filipinos are happy-go-lucky people.

Despite all the hardships, we cherish every moment in life. We love to party, drink, eat, and go to other places. Some even play one-day millionaires, spending everything and saving nothing. Pretending to be what they are not.

6. Most Filipinos are not aware of national issues.

Some considered it as a state of blissful ignorance. Some Filipino do not care about national issues, even spent years tolerating the abuses of our corrupt presidents, the abuse of our corrupt government officials and political clan. Even today, if you happen to see status of teenagers on Facebook and other social networking sites, it is more about love rather than political and national issues. This reason might not true to some Filipino but we cannot deny that this reason exist. It exist because in can be seen in the true picture of our life.

Above are some of the reasons why Filipinos are happy people. As a Filipino myself, I know Filipinos has so many reasons to be happy because that's what we are. We always find ways to smile in spite of the hardship that we have. Some reasons might not be pleasing for everyone. But, there is nothing wrong to be happy. There are things in life that money could not buy, one of which is happiness. No amount of money can buy true peace and true happiness. Stay happy! (*_^)

When your computer freezing randomly and you do not know why, you are in the right page to search for the right solutions. When your computer become unresponsive and some of its applications hang and unable to respond to any commands, you need to identify the different possible causes in order to fix the problem. Fixing computer which freezes randomly you must first attempt to identify the source of the problem, and troubleshoot the problem accordingly.

Most Common Reasons Why Computer Freezes and its Solution

1. Hard disk space is not enough.

If the drive C or the system drive has not enough disk space for virtual memory, some applications won't run smoothly and it will also cause the computer freezing problem.

Solution: Delete or transfer the unnecessary files of your drive C. These includes the files of your desktop, My Documents folder and downloads. You can also increase the system drive by re-partitioning your hard drive. You can do this by partitioning hard drive without formatting.

2. Not enough RAM.

Everything in our computer uses RAM. All running programs load into RAM and the processor runs them from there. So the more RAM your computer has, the faster and more efficiently it will run, but if you are running more programs with limited RAM, the slower your computer will be.

Malware infection and virus infection are the common reasons why computer freezes. Viruses can delete some of the DLL files and other initialization files that needed and crucial to the operating system. This can cause errors that resulted to computer freezing problem. Malwares/spywares can also run hidden programs that can consume the processor's activity and can also affects the computer performance.

Solution:If you don't have an antivirus or antispyware tools on your system, purchase and install one; otherwise, make sure that you're running the latest version of the application. Run a full system scan to check for problems and remove any potential threats, and be sure to repeat this process regularly to prevent future issues. I recommend malwarebytes to remove malware infection.

There are so many public proxies nowadays. Sometimes we used these proxy sites or proxy servers to bypass surfing restrictions just to access blocked websites and restricted services while at work or at school. Some of these proxy servers do not work well, it will just give us a very slow internet connection. It is time to end all these sufferings. We do not need to endure the slow internet connection if we can make our own computer system to act as our proxy server. In this tutorial I am going to show how to use your internet from home to access blocked websites or networking sites while at work or some other places, most especially if these services are blocked by their firewall.

3. In the left-hand menu, click on SSH. In Protocoloptions, tick “enable compression” and set your preferred SSH version to “2“.

4. Now expand the “SSH” menu and select the “Tunnels” sub-menu. In the “Source port” field, type in a source port. Here still I am using 22 but you can use anything. Then select “Dynamic” as “Destination” and click the “Add” button.

5. Now, go back to the “Session” tab at the top of the menu, tick on the new connection name (My SSH Proxy) and click on the “Save” button. Now, you are done with PuTTY configuration you can now login to your SSH server.

6. In your Firefox browser setup your proxy server. Go to Tools > Options, then click the Advanced icon and select the Network tab then click on the Settings. On this dialog click the Manual proxy configuration button, then put the address 127.0.0.1 in the SOCKS Host field. In the Port field enter the port you used when configuring your SSH tunnel with Putty.

You can now browse internet using your Firefox browser. You can visit www.whatismyip.com to check which IP address firefox is showing.

Here are some of the solutions of these problem:

1. Try adding these entries to /etc/resolv.conf:

nameserver 8.8.8.8

nameserver 8.8.4.4

2. Check your firewall settings. Try to disable iptables and run the yum update command. If it's working then it might be that your outbound DNS is not working so it cannot resolve names to IP addresses. To fix that you will need to open or allow DNS port (53) in your firewall.

Everytime I tried opening Adobe After Effects, this error is kept on popping up..

After Effects error: failed to parse transmap file

I can't open any files nor create a new composition because of this message! I googled the solution and some says that it has something to do with fonts. I tried to delete all those new installed font but it didn't solve the problem.

After searching the answer, I fount this solution from one of the forum sites I've visited. Glad to say it works!

Find your AfterFX9.ini. By default it should be located in C:\Documents and Settings\[username]\Application Data\Adobe\After Effects\8.0

Open it in the text editor of your choice. By default this will be Notepad. Alternate tools could be SciTe or Textpad. Do not use office programs like Word for this.
